PowderyWhat does La Chasse aux Papillons (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with bergamot, mandarin orange and pink pepper, a bright start with a light spicy edge. The heart gathers linden blossom, orange blossom, jasmine, tuberose and lemon blossom, with green and fruity touches sweetening the flowers. Ylang-ylang and tuberose carry the base, and the scent settles into a softly powdery finish.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and work are the most chosen occasions. Most voters read it as feminine. Acqua di Parma Gelsomino Nobile and Miller Harris La Pluie have a close profile.
